Did you know that Ontario is spending millions of dollars every single day for their "Suck Up to the USA" commercials?

The commercials began after President Trump told Trudeau that he might impose tariffs if Trudeau didn't step up security on the Canadian border. Trudeau quickly complied, but Trump teased him heavily, calling him "Governor" of our Canadian "State".

THEN came the commercials. They are propaganda light. They come on television SO often that it verges on an attempt at brainwashing. They are all about how Ontario is our friendly neighbor and ally to the north, and partners in business and in our economy, and how they have all sorts of minerals we need for tech, and how they have so much energy up there to share.

I don't know if you have seen the commercials...but I am beginning to get angry about them. There is NO NEED for us to be subjected to this constant bombardment. My brain REFUSES to be washed...and Ontario is accomplishing the OPPOSITE of what they intended.

If you have seen the Ontario commercials, you know what I mean. Do YOU feel the same way that I do?

Doesn't bother me in the least. Let them whine. The goal is 2 fold. Secure the border, and fair trade. All they have to do it get those things in order and all will be just fine. If not... well.. 🤷🏻‍♂

@carpediem Yes. But when Trump gets into office, is this commercial is still running, I'm going to write to him and ask him to make it stop! 🤣🤣🤣

@4meAndyou It's kind of funny really. Its like "we're Canada and happy to drop to our knees whenever America unzip's their collective fly". As it should be.

@carpediem But the massive repetition...it's way too much. I am going to have to stream.

@4meAndyou I can't relate. I don't watch my television any more. And the times I am, I mute any commercials.

@carpediem There's a thought.
@carpediem I don't like commercials too and I donated my TV to a public school nearby. I just stream, that's better, I think.🙃
